BEFORE NOAH by Tom Jensen
We’ve got a runner!
In a land full of hiders
Who have yet to discover
They’re cannon fodder for the insiders
Uh Oh! The last guy who said that got shot
But the guy before him became a movie star
Few know it was Moses who built the arc
Before Noah came and stole it and rode it
And then stripped it for parts…
I need a blender
Hawaiian shirt, fruit and gin
A sign stating return to sender
And lots of umbrellas
For all of my jealous friends
When I spend the weekend
Going out on a bender
With the TWO daughters of the bartender
No, they’re not twins but I STILL win!
I need a reader
Like the world needs a leader
Why do box stores have a greeter
Who scares small children
And staring old ladies
Whose dogs sit like stars
In the front seats of cars…
Oh, excuse me, it’s not a car…
It’s a Mercedes!
Hey, some call it Haven
Some call it Hell
While others call it Hades
